Advising & Planning

Because timing and credit alignment are critical for this accelerated timeline, early planning is highly recommended.

Who should meet with an Undergraduate Advisor?

Please schedule an appointment with an Undergraduate Computer Science Academic Advisor if you are:

  • A current Weber State BSCS major looking to map out your remaining undergraduate semesters.
  • An undergraduate student considering transferring to Weber State to pursue their BSCS degree, who wants to see how their current transfer credits will align with the accelerated timeline.

Note: Students are highly encouraged to begin planning early and meet with an undergraduate academic advisor during the first semester of their junior year.
